ADHD Treatment in Dubai

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a brain disorder characterized by constant inattention or hyperactivity-impulsivity, which impedes the growth, development and functions of a person. It mainly affects children and teenagers, and can continue until adulthood.

People affected with ADHD (formerly referred to as ADD) experience difficulty in concentrating on tasks and easily get distracted. They exhibit a short attention span when listening to lectures, talking to people, or faced with lengthy reading. For children, they are unable to pay attention in school and at home.

ADHD is more commonly observed in boys than girls, and children with the condition usually display symptoms during their school years, or as early as the age of 4. Adults affected with the disorder face challenges managing their time, staying organised, and achieving their goals. They also have difficulties keeping their job and getting quality sleep; they have a tendency to get addicted to something and encounter issues in their relationships.
